Join over 9,000 fellow challengers and experience North Carolina on an epic city-by-city expedition from Asheville to Wrightsville. Along the way, you will earn milestone badges for each major city in the Tar Heel State. Make no mistake, this challenge will test you! But don't fret, as we will motivate you along the way! All challengers receive a limited edition Blue Ridge to The Beach T-Shirt, a gorgeous Finisher's Medal and a custom Pre-Race Bib, as well as Live Map Tracking of your progress, a Challenger's Leaderboard, a digital Finisher's Certificate with your stats and access to our Challenger's Community on Facebook.
You will be able to see your progress along the route as you enter your mileage! Our live map tracking feature will even allow you to see where your fellow challengers are on the map compared to you - now that's some motivation! (see example below)
You can join a challenge anytime, and we will relaunch the challenge on the 1st of each month. You will have six months to complete the 475 miles.
You can set your goal to move as few as 18 miles per week or challenge yourself to cover as many as you can - be sure to pace yourself! We will help you total up your distance and track your progress with our online progress tracking platform.
These challenges are simple:
1. Do what you want to do, when you want to do it, from wherever you are (run, walk, bike as few as 18 miles per week)!
2. Connect and track your progress on our race page and facebook group!
3. Get your limited edition Blue Ridge to The Beach T-Shirt, Medal and more!
Donations support local North Carolina food banks and hunger relief programs to help people who are in dire need of food. Before Covid-19, 1 in 9 Americans struggled with food insecurity. As a result of Covid-19, food insecurity is expected to double worldwide. Our updated goal is to raise a $150,000 to support local programs, including Feeding The Carolinas, The Inter-faith Council for Social Service, and Table. In addition, you can choose to donate to support the Beautiful Together Animal Sanctuary supporting animal welfare in North Carolina.
